It does. Thank you @GreyGhost - I’ll give it a shot!

Yeah that’s the style I have. The ones that worked for me are these: MEGADORA IMPACTA No.980(Ph No.2 x 100) | PRODUCTS INFORMATION | VESSEL CO., INC. And they make great screwdrivers for normal application. I know you lose torque but if you can’t get to where you need to be it doesn’t matter...

I don’t know how to test head bearings but mean to learn. Tire pressure is fine. What confuses me in all this is just how inconsistent it is for me. Nobody on the forums describes this kind of inconsistency. For me it can be bad for a while, then completely go away for a few hours, then get...

My advice - get the long handled ones, not the short squat ones. Makes getting to the right spot easier. I had to borrow a neighbour’s Vessel Megadora to get to some screws the other day. I have the squat Vessel that takes interchangeable bits but could not maneuver it properly.

This one is the 09 GTS 250ie. Bike has the heaviest bar ends Piaggio sells according to dealer- that’s how I came to being told my front shock was done. I’m skeptical there as I would think the symptoms would be much more consistent- instead for me, it pnly happens sometimes. I had the screen...

Decided to change the coolant on my "new" Vespa as the dealer had said it hadn't been done in 4 or 5 years. Also went to run an SAE cable up behind the wind screen. What a pain. Had to remove so much plastic to get access. I thought the Multistrada was bad and that this would be easy...

That's good to know - I had no idea. Never occurred to me until your post to check - and found that the solenoid for my 1987 CBR600F project (dead due to having lost all the plastics) appears to cross-reference to the 84 VF500F. I know my CBR600 started up with no problem. I wonder how many...

My sister gifted me her 09 Vespa GTS 250ie as she was tired of putting her summer ride on her lift to make room. I had already put maybe 1000 miles on it over the last several years. She was complaining that it kept stopping. Opened the battery compartment, tightened the screws to the battery...

Kreg pocket screw system is great. The jigs and screws are fairly priced and easy to use. I have a Festool Domino, a bunch of the fancy guides for it, and a few dowel jigs, but the Kreg is my choice if I can hide the pocket holes or just don't care.

I see what you're seeing in the picture, but I don't see it in person. The shoulder and threads all seem to be uniform in thickness, to my eye. The photo also really hides the length of the shoulder. I know it's a matter of perspective but in person you don't get that effect either.

I am happy to report - I freed the screw today! Since my last post I decided I was going to take a break from actively working on it. I decided that on weekends where I could see the bike, I would keep hitting it with whatever combination of penetrating oil, heat, and tapping on it with a...

I appreciate that the guy got right down to the topic at hand. All the extra fluff edited down whereas others would take every opportunity to milk something to make more money from my eyeballs.

So cute, but all I could think of when I saw that picture is poison ivy. That's my biggest fear riding single track.

I met a guy in the Kawarthas a few years ago. To get into his driveway, he has to sit *in* a blind corner while waiting to make a left. The day before, a woman in a Harley came along and hit the back of his car. She died. Her husband apparently crashed into her, I don’t know if he ended up...

Hope this isn't against the rules. I have 3 tickets for their final show listed below cost in the Classifieds. Check it out. I am losing money on these.

NuggyBuggy submitted a new listing: Oasis tickets - below cost! - Oasis tickets - below cost! Learn more about this listing...

When I moved back to Toronto I had it trucked home from LA. I had talked to VW and they told me it would be no problem and they would support me with working through Transport Canada (I think). Then when it gets here, Transport Canada asks for proof that the US Corrado has the same bumper...

Not proud of it, but I've been on tires a lot worse. After 15k I'm surprised those tires look as good as they do. Do you know that he is the original owner? @adri - I'm glad you're OK. Looking at the size of that truck - if I were you I would go out and buy a lottery ticket. Imagine if one...

I had a Corrado. I loved that car, but I got hit by a car turning left into me and it was never the same. Girls would yell at me on the 405 in LA doing 70mph asking about it. I still sometimes look for Corrados on Marketplace.

That makes more sense if he's been dropping the price... if he wants to sell, that's the way to do it. What did he start at? I'm not seeing what you're seeing in the tires though. Looks like a lot of rubber left to me, and I doubt original tires are lasting 15000 km. Flat in the middle -...
